A children’s nursery was targeted by thieves this morning — the second time it has been broken into within a week.

Police said that at 7.35 a.m. today they received a report of a burglary at Kiddie Academy on Laffan Street, in Pembroke.

A spokesman said: “Details are unclear at this time, however initial information suggests that a computer and other items were stolen from the premises.”

Last week thieves broke into Kiddie Academy, stealing a laptop, $100 cash, chocolate milk belonging to the children and a bottle of wine from an office party, before starting a fire in the building.
